Why Montana customers mail in saab trionic 7 / t8 ecm clone

Do you accept saab trionic 7 / t8 ecm clone modules from Montana?
Yes — we receive modules from Billings, Missoula, Great Falls, Bozeman and the rest of Montana regularly. With about 1.7 million registered vehicles statewide, full-size pickups & 4x4 SUVs are the bulk of what we see from Montana.
Is there a saab trionic 7 / t8 ecm clone shop in Billings I should use instead?
Most Billings shops don't keep the bench equipment for saab trionic 7 / t8 ecm clone — they'd forward the module to a specialist anyway, which adds a markup and a middleman. Going direct to us is usually faster and cheaper. Cross-country northwest — about 3 days each way.
Does Montana vehicle inspection or emissions testing affect this service?
Montana has no statewide periodic vehicle safety or emissions inspection program. Our service is bench module programming only — you remain responsible for your vehicle's compliance with all Montana and federal requirements.
My original ECM is completely dead. Can you still do it?
If it will not power up or communicate on the bench there is nothing to copy, so a straight clone is not possible. Those jobs route to our advanced recovery service (ecu-advanced-recovery-service), where a direct read from the board is attempted. Send us the VIN, the symptoms, and photos of the module first and we will give you an honest read on the odds before you pay for shipping.
Will my keys still work, and does the immobilizer stay on?
Yes to both. Cloning transfers the existing immobilizer relationship rather than deleting it, so the keys that worked before keep working and the factory anti-theft system remains fully active. This is not an immobilizer delete or a security bypass. Because the work touches immobilizer data, proof of ownership — title, registration, or a bill of sale — is required before we begin.
